Subject: [PATCH] fix warning: no return statement in function returning non-void in kernel/audit.c


kauditd_thread() is being used in a call to kthread_run(). kthread_run() expects
a function returning 'int' which is also how kauditd_thread() is declared. Unfortunately
kauditd_thread() neglects to return a value which results in this complaint from gcc :

  kernel/audit.c:372: warning: no return statement in function returning non-void

Easily fixed by just adding a 'return 0;' to kauditd_thread().
